you can.

how do you propose handling the fueling needs?
you only have 2 injectors.

you can boost it. it just wont be as reliable.
so you best bet is to go mpfi and then turbo it.

You can see 1 of the 2 injectors that are plumbed in the charge pipe before the throttle body. Controlled by SDS.

not just relying on the 2 stock injestors.

at this point, swapping to mpfi and having better tunability would be just as much.

its been done before. but not recomended. you will have a very hard time getting enough fuel. i would just convert to mpfi you can do it for a couple hundred bucks.
